Very small indeed! Gosh, favorite album is tough. If I had to choose, it would probably be Obzen but then again I’m wearing the Nothing shirt for a reason haha. And then if I had to choose favorite song, probably Demiurge
Love the build. My only advice for a home built engine is to crank the engine over without spark plugs in it to build oil pressure before firing. I've seen several engines destroyed because of this.
The clicking when you were first turning it over is because the engine hadn't seen oil pressure in a while. The chain tensioners in these engines use oil pressure to hold tension. Without the pressure in them they click when you turn the engine. Perfectly normal for there to be slight slack and have that clicking.
Everyone says these 5.4l are trash engines but this one is proof that they really aren’t that bad. Granted it’s an early 4v without the vvt shit but I’ve seen plenty of high mileage 3v too, maintenance is the key
Great video dude! I got a suggestion for you. Do a BMW M62/M62tu build next one. There is not a single good video on YT about that engine and its killing me!
@@JJinMotion well if they are original to the engine and it has 270k miles on it they are probably passed there life span at this point probably worth just replacing it all the timing comps and getting the ratcheting style tensioners too so if you do some how run low on oil/pressure the tensioner wont give way causing the chain to skip and lose timing then cause bad stuff
Meshuggah ❤💪👌
They're originally from the same village as me here in Sweden :)
That’s epic! Love them
@JJinMotion yeah, I didn't expect to see you show up in their t-shirt. That's cool. World is small :)
Any favorite album and/or song?

Thanks dude! Definitely going to do that. Much more on the engine build coming soon

Anything for you ❤️
Those are duralast coils that you pulled out BTW. The AZ special
Quality junk right there!!
U do not want lube under bearings just on them bud

For sure, this one made it nearly 300k miles and needed no boring or major machine work

Sounds amazing dude, maybe one day :-)
hatchbacks FTW!
Haha for real dude! Came in so clutch
I would have checked the ring gap.. Piston skirts didn't look good.
oil cylinder walls and rings before installation
one side looks worse cos its the side with the crank case ventilation, the tension changes cos the tensioner is a oil pressure fed tensioner
Makes sense, although I did find tons of timing component parts in the oil pickup
